Mandeville Canyon Residence by Rockefeller Partners Architects

June 20, 2010 Filed Under: Homes Design

This modern contemporary residential project is created for a family with two small children where they could work, play and grow as a family. Located in Mandeville Canyon, a small community in the Brentwood neighborhood of Los Angeles, California, this beautiful mandeville canyon residence is designed by Rockefeller Partners Architects. The house is located in ideal environment with an expansive views of the city and ocean beyond.

This modern residence pays homage to the craftsman architecture of the early 1900s with its originality, simplicity of form, use of natural materials and the visibility of handmade details. Much like its turn-of-the-century predecessors, the design rejects opulence and mass-produced housing elements.

Nestled between groves of trees, the residence is divided into two main wings. The public living spaces and master suite are located in one, while the children’s quarters, guest rooms, and auxiliary spaces are located in the other.

The location of the master suite and home office allow the homeowners to work in proximity to their family without sacrificing privacy. Similarly, guest quarters have a separate entrance allowing for a certain amount of autonomy while the children’s rooms are designed specifically to allow for both communal play and individual privacy.

In addition to the main house, there is a detached four-car garage, a 1950’s-era post and beam pool house (now refurbished as a writer’s studio), an oversized pool and spa, a basketball court, and a tennis court with a small pavilion.
